We don’t support the use of adapters as we cannot confirm the compatibility with all of them, therefore I don’t recommend you to use the adapter you are mentioning.

On the other hand, if what you need is to connect the drive to an M.2 connector because it's the only option available, I recommend you instead the U.2 form factor version of the Intel® Optane™ SSD 900P Series. It includes an adapter cable from U.2 to M.2 connector. Please check it in the following site for additional details: What’s in the Box for Intel® Optane™ SSD 900P Series

I hope you find this information useful. If there is anything else I can help you with, feel free to ask.

I understand what you are saying. I’m sorry you had to remove the Intel® Optane™ SSD 900P Series because of the form factor. Hopefully with the upgraded system you will be able to include this SSD again into it.

If you have any further concerns, please feel free to open a new thread. We’ll assist you in any way we can.
